Mothballs are extremely toxic! Mothballs are made of white crystals of two very dangerous chemicals, para-dichlorobenzene (1,4-dichlorobenzene) and/or naphthalene. Both chemicals are solid at room temperature but produce very strong, toxic vapors. Mothballs are sold as flakes or pressed into cakes.
Mothballs do annoy mammals. However, you have to have high concentrations of the odor in order to achieve the desired effect. The problem is, in many situations, to achieve those odor levels you will be driving yourself and your family out of the house too.
